29 And Dovid said, What have I done now? It was only a davar (word) [I said], wasn't it?
30 And he turned from him toward another, and spoke after the same manner; and HaAm answered him again according to the davar harishon (the previous word).
31 And when the devarim (words) were heard which Dovid spoke, they rehearsed them before Sha'ul: and he sent for him.
32 And Dovid said to Sha'ul, Let no lev adam fail because of him; thy eved will go and fight with this Pelishti.
33 And Sha'ul said to Dovid, Thou art not able to go against this Pelishti to fight with him: for thou art but a na'ar (boy), and he an ish milchamah (man of war) from his youth.
34 And Dovid said unto Sha'ul, Thy eved is ro'eh (shepherd) of tzon of aviv, and there came the ari, and the dov, and carried off seh out of the eder (flock):
35 And I went out after him, and struck him, and saved out of his mouth: and when he arose against me, I caught hold by his zakan (beard), and struck him, and killed him.
